Canon Mirrorless Coming on February, 2016

Now we are all waiting for Canon next mega announcement that may include Canon 1DX Mark II and a big surprise…. The article consist of two parts, what we do know and what we expect

What we know

Starting from a part of old interview of Canon Managing Director,

Masaya Maeda, the Managing Director and Chief Executive, Image Communication Products Operations confirmed that Canon is working on serious mirrorless camera system other than EOS-M

Currently no Canon camera offers more than 22MP. Do your DSLR customers ask for higher resolution?Maeda: Yes. We know that many of our customers need more resolution and this is under consideration. In the very near future you can expect us to show something in terms of mirrorless and also a higher resolution sensor.

It’s now become clear that Canon was working on 5DS / 5DSR and Fullframe Mirrorless camera and high-end mirrorless camera before the interview was published on September 2014,

Back on Feb 6, 2015 Canon announced world first super high resolution DSLR camera (Canon 5DS), We don’t know the actual reason behind the delay but Canon Fullframe mirrorless was rumored to arrive in 2015.

What we expect

We have published on January 14th, 2016 that Canon may announce high-end mirrorless camera on February 2016 [click here to see]. Finally, According to latest rumors surfaced over the web Canon may announce Canon 1DX Mark II along with Canon high-end mirrorless in the month of February, 2016.

Let’s hope for the best and do share information and thoughts with us.

I did not know that Canon has no camera that exceeds 22 megapixels, and that high executives at Canon, have been informed by Canon customers that they want more. However, 22 megapixels is more than enough with quality APS-C or full frame sensors. It is ironic though, that Nikon’s least expensive DSLR, the D3300, has 24 megapixels, and Sony’s expensive A7rii full frame has 42 megapixels. While more is not always better, the customers seem to think so. Customers are generally loyal to certain brands, have the spending power to determine the financial success of cameras in this competitive market. Sticking with 22 megapixels may have a backlash in the future to brand new camera customers interested in photography. And bargain prices. Low to expensive.
